Tom Baker tests the 2025 Tesla Model Y for Chasing Cars in Rear-Wheel Drive trim. It’s $3000 more expensive than before but upgrades to the interior and dynamics might be worth it.

The Tesla Model Y was the world’s top selling car in 2023 and 2024. Will that feat be repeated? Maybe, though the political situation in the United States appears to be hindering sales. Despite that, the Tesla Model Y has returned with a deep mid-life upgrade that includes new frequency selective dampers, a quieter and more pleasant cabin, and other adjustments as well as an obvious exterior facelift.

Rivals to the Model Y include the Volkswagen ID.4 and ID.5, Skoda Enyaq, Cupra Tavascan, Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV5 and EV6, BMW iX3 and others.
